I haven't. I've heard rumors that she spends three hours on a bride and ends up applying way too much makeup, which is exactly what I’m trying to avoid.😁

Has anyone here actually had a good experience with her?

Hey everyone,

I’m on the hunt for a makeup artist in San Francisco who actually knows how to do a "natural" look—someone who listens to what the bride actually wants instead of forcing heavy lashes and bright red lipstick on someone who doesn't even touch mascara on a normal day. 😁

The wedding is in two weeks, and honestly, I’m hitting a breaking point. I’ve wasted way too much money and sanity on trial runs where I ended up looking like a walking caricature. At this point, I'm pretty desperate. 🙂

If you have any recommendations, please let me know! 🎉

Austin Thompson96 said:Depends on what kind of view you're after 🙂 all of these are fine for small weddings—I might suggest adding Kalafatic to the list, assuming you want to stick strictly to San Francisco... if you look outside the city, there are plenty of little seaside spots that serve decent food.

I can only comment on where I've actually eaten lately... the food at Graso and Re di mar is below average—Graso, in particular, was a massive disappointment; they've really let themselves go. At Mistral, they use college students as servers which feels totally unprofessional—the menu is just okay, definitely overpriced in my opinion. Velum has solid food and experienced staff; haven't been to the others.

Thanks for the heads-up! 🎉So far, we've narrowed it down to four options: Velum, Kadena, Re di mar, and Pirate. They all run about $280-$117 per person, and none of them are privatized, which is a huge win. 👍If anyone here has actually eaten at one of these places, I am all ears. 😁

Hey there,

Does anyone know a bakery in San Francisco that does wedding cupcakes? We’re planning a tiny little get-together—maybe 25 people tops—and we were thinking of doing a three-tier cupcake tower with a small cake sitting right on top for 😉

Something looking like this would be perfect. 😁

Hey everyone! So, I recently got engaged, and naturally, I’ve fallen down the rabbit hole of googling absolutely everything under the sun. This is officially my first post on the forum 😁

I was wondering if anyone has any intel or personal experiences regarding these specific spots? I'm looking at a small summer wedding next year (around June, maybe 20-25 people), and any insight would be a huge lifesaver:

1) Grašo
2) Velum
3) Lučica
4) Mistral (Radisson)
5) Kadena
6) Barkarola
7) Re di Mare

Thanks! 🎉
